Genesis 3:17-23

17Then he said to the man, “You listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree, although I commanded you, ‘You must never eat its fruit.’ The ground is cursed because of you. Through hard work you will eat ⌞food that comes⌟ from it every day of your life.

18The ground will grow thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat wild plants.

19By the sweat of your brow, you will produce food to eat until you return to the ground, because you were taken from it. You are dust, and you will return to dust.”

20Adam named his wife Eve [Life] because she became the mother of every living person.

21The Lord God made clothes from animal skins for the man and his wife and dressed them.

22Then the Lord God said, “The man has become like one of us, since he knows good and evil. He must not reach out and take the fruit from the tree of life and eat. Then he would live forever.”

23So the Lord God sent the man out of the Garden of Eden to farm the ground from which the man had been formed.
